“The fog of war is no match for the mist of fate”

The holy spring of Avernus is the source of a family's strength, a crevice in the ancient stone, from which emanates the old energy that has been passed down through the generations. All children born in the Avernus cave are bathed in a black mist, which grants them an innate ability: the ability to connect with the mysterious energies of the land. As they grow up, they are taught that they are merciless guardians of the family tradition, the customs of the kingdom – but in reality, what they are really protecting is the holy spring. And the truth about the mist remains a mystery.

When Abaddon was christened, it was said that something was wrong. The child's eyes suddenly flashed, as a signal of awareness, startling everyone, the priests whispered to each other about this. When he grew up, everyone thought he would walk the path chosen by his forebears - train by fighting, and then later lead the family's legion in battle to protect the holy place when needed. But Abaddon was always different. While the others practiced using the weapon, he forced himself to practice in the mist. He dived deep into the holy springs, learned to merge his soul with the potential that flowed from the depths of the earth, becoming a creature of the black mist.

Conflict broke out within the Avernus family – the elders and peers accused him of neglecting his duties. However, that all came to an end when Abaddon led his army into the battlefield, and all saw that the power of the mist gave him a mastery over life and death far surpassing any Avernus lord.
